Taste of Northfield 2010

“After the Storm” update, 6/18, 8:30 am:

Here’s the revised “After the Storm” schedule of events for today’s Day 2 of Taste of Northfield 2010.

The Northfield Downtown Development Corporation (NDDC) is proud to present its Fifth Annual Taste of Northfield, Thursday and Friday, June 17 and 18, from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., in and around historic Bridge Square, located in the heart of beautiful downtown Northfield. This year’s Taste of Northfield will be jam-packed with delicious food, fantastic entertainment, and fun for the whole family—promising to be the biggest and best ever.

Along with tasty treats being served up from close to two dozen local food vendors and a beer and wine tasting tent located on the Fourth Street Bridge overlooking the Cannon River, the 2010 Taste of Northfield will include a street dance and many musical performances. On Thursday evening, there will be a special bank raid re-enactment by the infamous James-Younger Gang, as well as a silent and live auction, with proceeds supporting the NDDC. The auctions will feature a wide-range of products and services donated by area retailers, businesses and community members. Raffle tickets are also being sold in advance, and at the event, for a $1,000 cash prize. The prize will be awarded Friday evening and the winner need not be present to win.
